A slender, high-contrast script with tall, elongated proportions and a distinctly hand-drawn rhythm. Strokes frequently taper to hairline terminals, with occasional thicker downstrokes creating a calligraphic contrast that feels ink-and-pen driven. Letterforms are loosely connected in running text, relying on gentle entry/exit strokes and looping joins rather than rigid, continuous connections. The set favors narrow counters, long ascenders/descenders, and soft curves, with simplified serifs and minimal edging that keep the overall texture light and open.
Best suited for display settings where its delicate strokes and tall, looping forms can be appreciated—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, beauty/fashion packaging, and short editorial headlines. It works well for names, taglines, and accent typography, and is less appropriate for dense body text or very small sizes where hairline details may recede.
The tone is graceful and poetic, balancing formality with a playful, personal touch. Its looping forms and airy spacing suggest romance and craft, with a slightly whimsical, boutique feel rather than a strict, traditional engraving aesthetic.
Designed to provide an elegant handwritten script with a light, airy texture and a touch of flourish for expressive, premium-looking display typography. The consistent narrow rhythm and tapered terminals indicate an intent to feel refined and calligraphic while remaining friendly and contemporary.
Capitals are particularly tall and expressive, often using elongated verticals and subtle swashes that stand above the lowercase. Numerals match the script’s delicate contrast and handwritten cadence, reading more decorative than utilitarian.
